  • Patent number: 11522352
    Abstract: System and method for supporting an electrical, conductor-carrying set of end to end pipes or enclosures to form an Iso Phase bus for electrical power transmission. The multiple tubular components are axially aligned in the field by a system comprising a saddle support with support legs, brackets for the support legs wherein the brackets secure to the upper flange of an I-beam on a steel support held in the ground. The brackets are adjustably secured to the legs of the saddle support and to the flange of the I-beam. In addition, an over the top enclosure, thin metal strap is provided which is also secured to the bracket and to the flange of the I-beam. Adjustments of the orientation of one enclosure to the adjacent connecting enclosure is able to be done in three axis.

  • Patent number: 10583511
    Abstract: An end product and system for connecting large aluminum tubular pipe segments into an Isolated Phase Bus comprising reducing the diameter (or increasing the same) of one end of a tubular segment and sliding it into (or over) the untreated end of an adjacent pipe or tubular segment, followed by a tubular and circumferential welding of the same. The outside or inside circumference of the connected segments are uniform from distal to proximal end of the overall length of the connected tubular segments. A structural integral, axially aligned, simplified set of connectable tubular segments allows for a grounded connection between power generators and step transformers. Preferably, the overall diameter change of the necked down flange (or outwardly flared flange) of one tubular segment is less than or only slightly greater than twice the material wall thickness of the tubular segment's initial pre-rolled flat aluminum sheet material.
